Integrating ESG, Innovation, and Organizational Value Crea-tion: A Scoping Review Toward a Unified Sustainability Framework

This study conducts a scoping review to systematically map the academic literature examining the relationships between Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) practices, innovation, and organizational value creation. The review follows the methodological framework proposed by Arksey and O’Malley and aligns with the PRISMA Extension for Scoping Reviews (PRISMA-ScR). Literature searches are performed in Scopus, Web of Science, and ScienceDirect. The objective is to identify how ESG, innovation, and organizational value creation have been conceptualized, measured, and empirically examined. The study synthesizes recurring empirical patterns and proposes an integrative sustainability framework positioning ESG as a strategic orientation, innovation as a capability conversion layer, and sustainable organizational value as the resulting outcome.
